By rapid marches Yūsuf Bughrā reached Cambay in 4 or 5 days and gave battle to Taghī, but the latter inflicted a sharp defeat upon him and put his troops to flight. Several of the amirs lost their lives in the encounter and Yūsuf Bughrā himself was among the slain. On hearing of this disaster, the Sultan immediately moved to the scene of action, but before he could reach Cambay, news came that Taghī had fled to Āsāwal. Pressed hard by the imperialists, the rebel went over to Nehrwālā where he revenged himself upon the local governor whom he put to death with a number of his officers who had attempted to check his advance.¹⁰⁴
